appreciate the feedback

If it is obvious that the contact is made purposely to displace the opponent, then yes. Although back when I played, (peach baskets, laced seams on the soccer ball etc.) I was taught if boxing a taller opponent to bend the knees and wait for the contact on your back then jump. this would leave the opponent off ablance and ruin their timing on the rebound.
